Nick Taylor has Timely finish on Back Nine in 2nd Round of West Coast GG Pro-am
(June 12, 2012 – Langley, BC) – Challenging conditions took their toll on many round one challengers in day two action at the VGT-West Coast Golf Group Pro-am at Hazelmere. Heavy rough, firming greens and tucked pins created havoc for a number of golfers, but not for round one leader Nick Taylor. Tee-ing off on the 10th tee, Taylor started with an opening birdie on his seventh hole (#16). But an errant tee-shot on his 8th hole (17th hole proper) sailed into the hazard left of the green, and resulted in his first major blemish in 2 days. But Taylor soon steadied the ship and made the most of his finish, birdying 3 of his last 5 holes to shoot a 2-under par 70, posting the low 36-hole score of the event.
Taylor takes a one shot lead into the final round tomorrow at Swan-e-set Resort over San Diego Pro Chris Cunningham, who scored rounds of 65, 71 over the two days. Nanaimo Professional Darren Griff had the round of the day, firing a 68, including a run of 4 birdies on his front nine over six holes. He sits in a tie for 3rd place with Creighton Honeck of Austin, Texas at -5 and two shots back of Taylor.
